About Me
italki teacher since Aug 14, 2015InterestsEnvironment & NatureReadingTravelFilms & TV SeriesFood
Ciao! I'm Chiara, a native Italian teacher, translator and language enthusiast. I believe the most beautiful moment in language learning is when **grammar stops feeling like a rule and starts feeling like a tool** — and that's exactly what I work towards with every student.
Many learners come to me after feeling stuck: they've tried apps and courses, they recognise patterns, but when it's time to speak, they freeze. My method is built around **grammar as a foundation and conversation as the goal** — using structured, carefully selected textbooks, then turning that knowledge into real, confident communication.
I hold a Master's in Translation Studies and a postgraduate Master's in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language. I also run **SosItalian**, a blog about Italian language and culture, and work as an English-to-Italian translator.
I've taught children, teenagers and adults online since 2015, guiding students from all over the world. I know where the difficulties are — and how to help you overcome them.
I can help you: start from zero · improve fluency · strengthen grammar · prepare for CILS/CELI exams · learn Italian for travel or everyday life.
Real progress is a two-way street — lessons are where we build together, but the magic happens when you practise every day too.
In our trial lesson we'll discuss your goals, assess your level and plan your path. Whether you're a complete beginner or already on your way, I'd love to be part of your Italian journey. A presto! 🇮🇹My teaching material

Chiara is a very laid back and chatty conversation partner who gives great feedback/corrections in writing. It really is like talking to a friend! I have very much appreciated practicing my Italian with her, and I hope to continue in the future. I’m generally always very nervous before having to talk in Italian but once we get chatting I literally forget my nerves within minutes 😊 Chiara has also provided me with texts on interesting topics in advance, which is a great service.
